Your Home Practice Guide

For those cozy at-home sessions, we highly recommend working with "The Pilates Body" by Brooke Siler. This wonderful resource has been a trusted companion for many of our students, helping them deepen their practice and maintain their progress between studio sessions. The book offers clear instructions and illustrations that make home practice both accessible and effective.

Many of you already know we consider this book an essential part of your Pilates journey. If you haven't picked up your copy yet, now is the perfect time to add it to your holiday wishlist. It's truly a gift that keeps on giving to your practice.

Remember, maintaining even a gentle practice during the holiday season can help you:

• Stay centered during the busy holiday rush

• Keep your body feeling strong and energized

• Maintain the progress you've worked so hard to achieve

• Start the new year feeling balanced and focused

We're grateful for each one of you and the energy you bring to our studio community. May your holiday season be filled with joy, peace, and mindful movement.

Warm wishes,

~Kim

Dear Pilates Community,

Have you ever seen a session or class is full and thought "Oh well, maybe next time"? I'm here to let you in on a little secret that could change everything: the waitlist is actually magical! ✨

Here's why hitting that waitlist button is one of the kindest things you can do for yourself and our whole community:

When you join the waitlist, you're sending us a signal. Every time you pop yourself on that waitlist, you're essentially raising your hand and saying "Hey! 👋I'd love to practice at this time!" This is invaluable information that helps us shape our schedule to better serve you.

Your waitlist entry = More sessions and classes for everyone. When we see consistent waitlist activity for a particular time slot, guess what happens? We create another session or class! Many times, the same day. That's right - your simple act of joining the waitlist directly contributes to expanding our schedule and creating more opportunities for everyone to practice.

Think of it as a ripple effect of goodness:

• You join the waitlist 📆

• We see the demand 👀

• We open a new session or class🎉

• More people get to move their bodies 👯

• Our community grows stronger 💪

So next time you see that a class is full, don't click away! Hit that waitlist button with confidence, knowing you're helping us build a schedule that works better for everyone. Remember, today's waitlist could be tomorrow's perfect session or class time.

Thank you for being part of our wonderful community and helping us grow together! 🫶

With gratitude,
~ Kim ~

P.S. Never underestimate the power of the waitlist - it's like voting for your favorite class times! 🗳️

Hello Studio Community

Happy trick-or-treating!

🍁 ⬇️ Read on for a special discount offer on Private sessions! ⬇️ 🍁

As autumn leaves drift and temperatures drop, many of us feel called to turn inward and focus on personal growth. What better time than November to invest in your wellness journey through Classical Pilates?

The Gift of Private Sessions

Just as each snowflake is unique, every body tells its own story. This is why private Pilates sessions are the cornerstone of a strong practice – regardless of your experience level. Think of it this way: you wouldn't join an orchestra without first taking private music lessons. The same principle applies to Pilates.

Private sessions are your opportunity to:

• Receive immediate, personalized feedback

• Learn at your optimal pace

• Build correct movement patterns from day one

• Discover modifications specific to your body

• Develop skills that will serve you for life

The Journey to Mastery

True mastery in Pilates isn't about how many repetitions you can do – it's about the quality of each movement. As you progress, you'll actually do fewer repetitions with greater precision. This is where the magic happens:

1. You'll develop laser-sharp concentration

2. Master precise, intentional movements

3. Learn to breathe without tension

4. Create seamless flow between exercises

5. Understand optimal alignment

6. Move powerfully from your center

Here's a little secret: Even when practicing at a high level, one might only hit 4 out of these 6 elements on a good day. Some days, it might just be 2 – and that's perfectly okay! This practice is a lifelong journey, not a race to the finish line.

🍁 Special November/December Offer 🍁

To celebrate this season of growth, we're excited to offer 10% off all Private Sessions through December. Use code EXTRA10 at checkout for:

• Single Private Sessions

• Private Session 4 Pack

• Private Session Intro Pack (perfect for both new and returning clients!)

• 10% off code can also be applied to all Private Session Gift Cards!

Why Start Now?

As we approach the holiday season, giving yourself the gift of proper foundation in Pilates is invaluable. Group classes are a privilege earned through preparation, and the strength you build in private sessions will serve you both in and out of the studio.

Remember: In Pilates, we measure progress not by quantity but by quality. Each mindful movement brings you closer to your goals, whether you're a beginner or an advanced practitioner.

Ready to begin or deepen your Pilates journey? Book your private session today and take advantage of our special offer. Your future self will thank you.

*Share this offer with friends and family – everyone deserves the gift of movement!*
